Biography
CEF - Found in 18290703FMS_WHS1 and 18290707FMS_WHS1. Appears to work for the Sewards, though she seems to be treated like a child. Apparently quite young, still in school. Possibly a playmate for AHS. According to 18310126FMS_WHS1 Sarah Lewis was 12 in 1831 and went somewhere, possibly to a wedding, with Edward. She returned with him in 18310127FMS_WHS1. She's mentioned again in 18290622FMS_LMW when FMS is attempting to teach her to read. FMS claims that her attempts to write previously have made her current studies impossible - previously her master had attempted to teach her - unclear though who her master is: either WHS or another master.
